Not only that - we didn't have 911 in the town I lived in (in the 90's). I still don't understand why people didn't refer to their town but their township (Bucks County for me which was also the county I think)..... And then people divided the Bucks County township into upper and lower Bucks County. I think this is right but not entirely sure. I never knew how to tell people where I lived. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

rafinmd Posted September 3, 2020 #456 Share Posted September 3, 2020 My first ever transatlantic was on a freighter, the Canmar Courage in 2003. My second (and first westbound) was on the Crystal Symphony in 2006. I I have no photos from September 3 but this is the sun rising on September 6, the day we arrived in Reykjavik.

rafinmd Posted September 4, 2020 #465 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I have a lot of September sunrises and sets but not every day. The only 2 consecutive days without photos are September 3 and 4. This is also from the 2006 transatlantic, sunrise on September 7. Roy 5 Link to post Share on other sites

wearesiamese Posted September 5, 2020 #467 Share Posted September 5, 2020 These pictures are mainly for Roy, but also for anyone else who was onboard the infamous #0205 in 2010. Note the date and or time of day as we progressed from a nice day ,,to the first(?) of 2 cyclones between Fiji and Sydney(sorry not in order and my other pics are too similar to take up any more real estate in this thread LOL 2 Link to post Share on other sites
